Porter Cable Plate Jointer

Yesterday I just happened to stop in my local HD. I went walking
through the tools department and was looking a the Porter Cable plate
jointer.
I noticed that it is now Type 3. I own a Type 2 what is the
difference? I know about the Type 1 to Type 2, but what changed in
Type 3?
